"Over this last weekend,drained the oil, pulled all the GP's and pumped in about 2 qts, divided out between all cylinders, of diesel fuel. Every morning and evening turning the engine by hand, forward and backwards.
Most of the fuel ended up in the drain pan after the fact, I measured it out from the drain pan."
This test you did (to me) screams poor sealing on the oil control ring, at the very least... if all of your ring gaps are in a line, toward the exhaust manifold, that would net a poor-seal situation that let the diesel creep by.
You've stated that the blowby has become WORSE since putting miles on the rebuild... continuing to flog her with heavy loads hoping for rings to seal does not seem like a good idea to me... can you confirm that it "has become worse during break-in of the rebuild" and let us know how you're observing/measuring it?
